Wasn't on mine and probably way down on yours.

So how were so many fans so right and Ed so wrong?

He wasn’t on it. He was on nobody’s. Hiring him and then paying him what they did was unbelievably stupid especially when you’re bidding against literally nobody

Pelini and Linehan were #1 on my list so they came thru in spades

Honestly, I started one of the first threads discussing Pelini as a candidate after Aranda left. Thought he could be a good fit if he wasn't too much of an a-hole. Good thing I'm not making the decision this time lol.

I thought he was a comfortable hire if I’m being honest. Thought he would give up a decent amount of yards but bring back a high TO margin

Just below Martha Stewart and just above the ghost of Bob Marley.

TD applauded the hire and couldn't wait to get rid of Aranda.

Certainly wouldn’t have been my choice, but never thought he’d fail so miserably

Came out of left field for me. Guess the moth balls were not worth dusting off.

His volatile personality would not be an issue if he knew what he was doing. His results speak for themselves.

I have to admit I was happy with the hire at the time. He was a successful DC when he was here before.

Wasn’t on my list at all. Surprised the hell out of me... but I’d be lying if I claimed to have thought it was a bad hire.
I was a little worried about his coaching style, but I truly thought he’d have success at LSU.
Boy was I wrong.
